31 Anti Memes That Challenge The Very Concept Of 'Meme' Itself

Anti-memes are one of the most potent forms of content online, offering an exotic elixir of strong memetic juiciness to the most seasoned aficionados of meme culture. These are memes that, to the average person, might not seem like memes at all. But by cleverly subverting expectations and deconstructing formats, these memes explore radically new territory in the memescape.

By denying the implicit obligation of "making sense" or "being funny," these anti-memes abandon all the normie restrictions that hold traditional memes back. As avant-garde, highly ironic and deeply surrealistic works of art, these anti-memes propose fresh and unprecedented forms of image-text synthesis.

The goal here isn't to chuckle, nor is it to understand. The goal here is to enter the shadowy parts of the internet's soul and shine a flashlight off the vaulted fourth walls of that dark cave, to wonder about what it means to even meme in the first place, to contemplate the essential, authentic nature of posting. Buckle in, bozo.
